UPDATE: House is torn down.

A three-story building under renovation at 306 West 3 St. forced the evacuation of two neighboring buildings this evening when it began "showing movement" in high winds, the Boston Fire Department reports.

The department reports it's established a "collapse zone" in case the building goes to pieces. A firefighter and police officer will remain on scene to monitor the situation.

You're the grandfather wolf in those Symbicort commercials (and don't think we didn't notice that you've switched grandpas, Symbicort!).

Maybe the stuff doesn't work as well as they try to tell us

This is what your luxury condos start off as. Keep the economy booming suckers.
